is this lunch bag suitable for hot lunches

Good question. Unfortunately I have never used it for hot items. Sorry I could not be of more help. Great for keeping things cold.

It is insulated but I'd have hot lunches in a thermos container of some sort. This is a rather large lunch back. Look at the measurements. If you had hot items in a regular tupperware container, I'd think it'd only stay warm a short amount of time. I used this bag for my 3rd grader and she took soup a lot but I had put her hot items in one of these: THERMOS FOOGO Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel 10-Ounce Food Jar, Blue/Yellow

Yes, as long as you don't close it too tight. And it will still keep the heat if it's not closed tightly. A hot dog will fit it just bends a bit to fit in, be sure your child uses a fork to take it out or turn the thermos upside down to get it out because the inside will still be very warm.

I purchased this bag as a gift for my niece to carry her art supplies in and it was the perfect size for that. I do think it would be too big to use as a lunch bag only. A standard size laptop could fit in it but I don't think I would use it for that either because the computer would probably be too heavy for the material the bag is made out of. Hope that helps.

It is a thermos and does an adequate job in keeping hot beverages hot, or in your case "warm." I'm sure it will do a good job at storing warm baby formula, but keep in mind that this product does not state that it is BPA-free. So if you have concerns with using a product that may contain BPA especially to store food for your child, then you may want to look elsewhere.

Yes, this thermos keeps food hot, but I recommend heating thermos inside w hot water first,and adding very hot food.( after u empty the water)

The bag is insulated, so it should keep things warm as well as cool. Haven't really tried it though. I heat my lunch at work usually. Very happy with this product overall. If you want something designed specifically to stay warm check out warmandtote.comMy daughter bought a couple of these for my grandsons and they work great

I don't think that I would try it for hot soup. It is fairly small. I used it for carrots/celery/ranch dressing. I don't know how it would handle the temperature of soup.

The bag is big enough to hold the 2 large fast food bags and it has extremely thick insulation, so it should be able to keep the food warm for 2 or more hours.

Yes. It might still be heavy to tote in a bag. Unlike a solid cooler with a grab handle. The insulated bag will help keep your food cold longer.

The bag is insulated. So I would assume it's good for both hot and cold items. It comes with an ice pack as well I only use it to keep things cool

No, these are definitely not made to hold hot foods. For chili or soup, you would be much better off with styrofoam or waxed paper containers.

I didn't find the bag to be too hot. We overnighted at just above an 8,500ft summit in Southern California with windy conditions and it kept me warm. It's light weight material allows for good night sleep in most conditions. It should be comfortable to use in both situations.

Yes, it is! Works well for keeping things either warm or cold. This bag really is great. It has so many ways to carry/use it! I just love mine :)

I would say so but it will depend on how big it is. I currently use a divided container that measures 5 by 5 by 4 inches and I still have space for more on the sides and top of the container. The lunch bag measures 9 by 6 by 6.

It depends on how long you can heat up the thermos and how hot you can get the food you are putting into it. I've found that it will be hot to warm depending ... either way, I was good with it.

I bought them for in-house luncheons at work. We have not used them for hot food, but for sandwiches, etc. They are stury and attractive.
